Community Action Agencies are private non-profit or public organizations that were created by the federal government in 1964 to combat poverty in geographically designated areas. Status as a Community Action Agency is the result of an explicit designation by local or state government.

A Community Action Agency has a tripartite board structure that is designated to promote the participation of the entire community in the reduction or elimination of poverty.

Community Action Agencies seek to involve the community, including elected public officials private sector representatives, and especially low-income residents, in assessing local needs and attacking the causes and conditions of poverty.

The Idaho Department of Correction starts preparing inmates for their release from prison on their first day in prison. Idaho Pre-Release manual.

The mission of Kairos Prison Ministry International, Inc. (KPMI) is to bring Christ’s love and forgiveness to all incarcerated individuals, their families, and those who work with them, and to assist in the transition of becoming a productive citizen. The word “Kairos” means “God’s special time.” KPMI is currently in 412 prisons in 32 states and 9 foreign countries. In Idaho, KPMI has two specific ministries, Kairos Inside and Kairos Outside and their goal is to be present in every prison in Idaho.

Kairos Inside consists of volunteer men from the surrounding community that present a 3 ½ day weekend retreat at the Idaho State Correctional Institution for up to 42 inmates at a time. Kairos is a short course in Christianity presented to non-Christian and Christian inmate leaders selected by the institution. A Kairos weekend is normally held once a year with additional other short Bible studies held during the year and a monthly worship service the second Monday of every month.

Kairos Outside is a special weekend retreat designed to support the female loved ones of anyone who is or has been incarcerated. Families of the incarcerated often “do time” along with their relatives or friends. It is important that they know that they are not alone and there is a Christian community that cares about them.

Several times per year teams from our church help in the effort in various ways. Let us know if you’d like be involved!

Community Service/Non-Profit

Loyal To One works with the men’s families before they

are released, as well as, any support groups they may

have waiting for them to ensure the best chance for success.

If there is no family or support group, Loyal To One provides

that for them through the help of our many mentors. We are

a very hands on ministry that has experienced pastors that

spend days and nights walking the men through life, whether

it be employment, marriage or relationship counseling,

budgeting and consumer debt counseling, recreation,

character building and so much more.

Ex-offender reentry programs are proven to help recidivism rates among all ex-offenders regardless of sex, race or creed. Many ex-offenders have a very hard time on the outside after serving their sentences. Ex-offenders have difficulties finding jobs, adequate housing or even attaining photo identification. These difficulties lead to more problems and often cause the ex-offender to get into trouble again.
